The Way That It Goes Songtext
von Catherine Britt

She can′t be young, and have too much fun
But he can be free, do whatever he pleases
Well he'll be a hero, and you′ll be the one
That's the talk of town, you'll never settle down
No ransom
Not the marrying kind

That′s the way that it goes
Cut off your nose
Let it be what it be
Say, "Thank you" and "Please"
Don′t you dare be yourself
You be someone else
That's the way that it goes
Yeah, everybody knows


Mr. Nobody Guy had way too much high
He fell to the ground, death made no sound
He′s forgotten
The celebrity man dies on the can
And it's sorrow and sadness, he′s above all the madness
It's tragic
Too much of a good thing

That′s the way that it goes
Cut off your nose
Let it be what it be
Say, "Thank you" and "Please"
Don't you dare be yourself
You be someone else
That's the way that it goes
Yeah, everybody knows, ooh

Well the meaning is here, it′s all very clear
Don′t you stand up and fight for what you think is right or wrong
'Cause nothing ever gets done by one little someone
What effect can it cause? You′re a speck on the flaws of a human
And it won't make no difference


′Cause that's the way that it goes
Cut off your nose
Let it be what it be
Say, "Thank you" and "Please"
Don′t you dare be yourself
You be someone else
That's the way that it goes
Yeah, everybody knows

That's the way that it goes
Yeah, everybody knows
Hmm, yeah
